Continental tyres — frequently asked questions
Why do Continental tyres win so many tests?
Continental invests heavily in compound and tread-pattern development. Their PremiumContact and SportContact families have repeatedly won AutoBild, ADAC and Tyre Reviews summer tests since 2020.
Are Continental tyres OE fitment?
Yes — Continental is original-equipment on a large share of German premium vehicles including Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche and Volkswagen models.
Is AllSeasonContact 2 good for UK winters?
Yes. It carries the 3PMSF snowflake marking and performs strongly in wet and cold conditions typical of UK winters, without the wear penalty of a dedicated winter tyre.
